Hey all, my name's Ryan. I've been a lurker for a while, but I figured I may as well post a little bit more. I'm 17, and i live in Newport, RI. I've been into cars as long as i can remember, and I've always had a thing for RBV's and pretty much anything 4x4 or Ford. For my first car, I jumped at the first BII I had the chance to get...unfortunatly I didn't think it through too much, and ended up getting a project...and thats not a bad thing 
She's a '90 BII XLT, 4x4, with an M5OD-R1 behind the stock 2.9L with 143,000on it. For $250, not half bad I don't think.
Now the bad.
Had both heads cracked, a blown muffler, needed most top-end gaskets, a t-stat, and a few other things. No problem there, got it done pretty fast. Soon after that I got an itch to paint her up a little bit. Started out flat black, then threw a couple of Ford blue stripes on there. Enough talk, how about a few pictures? She's got no name yet, any suggestions?

Don't have any suggestions for a name just yet, my minds not real clear right now.
